random notes for the day


the T3s and the pain have caused some disjoint in my logic processes and i seem unable to post a coherent entry – so instead here are some notes from my day….

it seems an odd thing to do – to add a memorial blog to your “people” list – but today i did just that for bob everton’s memorial website. as people are continuing to add to it, and i was informed today of a get together on monday to discuss potential memorial projects to remember and commemorate the life of our friend – it seems that his memory will persist in our work, and thus he hasn’t ceased in all ways, just some that are important to our mind’s understanding of “person”.

there is snow predicted for thursday night, friday and saturday – and very cold temperatures on the horizon (that is – cold for here – being -8). my mother is supposed to be visiting on friday but i am not sure with the weather if that will happen since the roads on both her and my end will likely be shot. they do plow the highway up here, but not always the side roads.

margot is coming on thursday and this will hopefully occasion us to work on two new/old blog projects… security.resist.ca being converted to blog form (easier to upkeep) and the old tao-van cookbook being turned into a community recipe blog (which may eventually become a print-cookbook as previously planned).

i have also been turning over in my head the need to actually get writing the book i was talking about a year ago – “the little sister’s guide to fighting big brother” which i did draft an outline and start writing for and then bailed on due to lack of motivation. i decided over the holidays (and at the behest of many people recently) that this project is still relevant and i am a very likely person to write it…. i just think i have to structure my time better – but at the same time it is hard to have so many divided attentions and writing a book takes a lot more focus than i have at the moment…….

i have gotten very little real work done today as my head is a bit fuzzy – though i managed to get some study-work done for an upcoming exam (and also had a quiz returned to me today with 97% marked on it! I am currently maintaining an A in both of my Psych courses….) i do however, have to get this ecopsych paper written this week just to get it out of the way so i’m hoping to find time to do that as well as the union writing on my schedule. see what i mean about divided attentions?

how come i can’t do everything?

  1. Hey “Red”, got your request for the CSS on my blog and thought I’d stop by. I’m sorry about your friend — he sounds like a jewel of a person with a lot of courage. Good luck on your school work. I’ll send over the CSS directly.
